What is Mobilegeddon?
Mobilegeddon is the name given to what is known as a Mobile Apocalypse. This global event was announced back in February by Google. Mobilegeddon is a name given by webmasters and web-developers to the Google’s algorithm update of April 21, 2015. The recent scare from Google was quite the eye opener for website developers and their clients.
How does this affect you?
What this means for you is that if your website is outdated and not mobile friendly your business listing will drop in the rankings and your site may get hit with a ranking penalty. Most people do their searches on their mobile phones and they usually tend to pick the first websites that are listed on top. This is where Hosting NSB can help.

What should you do now?
